DecisionAccelerator (August 2004 - October 2005)
|
|
|
Lead developer in the design and development
of a J2EE based interface to
Fair Isaac's Blaze Advisor Rules Server.
Product included hosting the process engine as an
EJB in
IBM WebSphere and
BEA WebLogic,
and as a
web service in
Apache Tomcat.
Built a Swing based GUI program to
serve as a test front-end to the system. This product used a
plug-in framework to be extendable enough to call any
XML based service.
All development was done using
Ant as the build system and
Castor,
Xerces and
Axis to process XML.
Ported the product to C#/.NET, to run as a web service under IIS.
Built an ASP.NET demo application to auto-generate
a user interface based on a .NET attributed object model. Input to the UI was
serialized to XML and passed to the Web Service and the results displayed.

LiquidCredit - Open Interface (December 2001 - July 2004)
|
|
|
Conceived, designed and developed dFlow, a GUI based drag and drop,
source code generator, using
Microsoft Visual Studio.NET & C#
as the key technology. The solution made extensive use of XML / XSLT,
.NET serialization & .NET reflections.
The design incorporated an extendable architecture allowing plug-ins to be
integrated into the product.
The product generated C# code, compiled it to an assembly and allowed it to be
executed within the development environment.
The product's significant highlight included the support of
Aspect Oriented (aspect based) features.
This product was so flexible that it was used for multiple other
applications within the company.
In today’s terminology, dFlow is considered a Domain Specific Language (DSL) framework;
conceived and developed years ahead of its time.
Designed and developed a .NET Attributes based
code generation system to generate wrapper classes to
access stored procedures in SQL Server,
in an object-relational manner.
This code generation was designed for
extensibility. Late requirements of adding transparent
database field encryption and compression were easily accommodated.
Prior to moving to the .NET environment, wrote test suites to
compare the performance of XML/XSL and associated technologies
implemented in the CLR against conventional,
(non-CLR based), development.

Designed and developed a SOAP infrastructure and API. This enabled an XML API to be built over
a proprietary web site (using reverse engineering). HTTPS posting and screen scraping was implemented to
enable identical functionality as that of the ASP based web site. This project involved significant
work with SSL, HTTPS, and client and server side
digital certificates, using the WinINet Win32 API.
Wrote an NT service which performed file transfers using FTP.
This service implemented multi-threading, fault tolerance and NT event logging.
Designed and developed a GUI tool for maintaining and generating subset
XML Schemas. This intuitive tool cut down significant implementation time and
made ease of maintaining numerous XML schemas accurately.
